Hello all,

Ending week 3.

I can still eat

Soreness and pain is worst at night.

Insomnia still an issue.

I have little depression or anxiety. That's down to philosophical reading.

Here is my sketch.

    Morning Steve

    When I was getting breakthrough pain at night and having to take oramorph, then try to get back to sleep, I was given MST Continum which is long acting morphine. I took it twice a day and it practically removed the background pain entirely

  • It may sound silly, but when I took my pain meds at night, I had a wheat bag that I would or my husband would heat up for me, and the heat really helped me. Just kept it away from my scar/wound 

  •  Not silly at all. Heat helps a lot if pain even if it’s not actually applied to the painful part. Good idea Debbie.
